At least until we saw 2 coyotes and turned back.

dunno about the coyotes in yer part of the world, but the ones here are bigger and more brazen than they used to be. I would prefer to have the big Reddog with me if I came across more than one at a time. On a leash, of course. Last dogs I let run free on walks were the Borzoi - my little one was only 50 pounds but she could take down a dog twice her size. And the big Zoi - at 125 pounds - I think could have managed a coyote...or more likely would have run home!

So, of course, your ex and my son took that to mean NO vet care.
I'm guessing they need a annual visit.

Scratchy already scratched hubby and hissed at me. Not a goo day for a vet visit! But I wanted his nails done before he finds new stuff to destroy.

I'm watching dog agility on TV. I just told Rusty, that is not what we were doing. Some of the dogs were perfect. But then this dog totally screwed up! THAT is what were doing!

Coyotes in the Eastern part of the country tend to be bigger; more small game.

Now we find out he will only be here 4 days total, except for vacation.

Oh well, at least the cat nails are cut.

Not shots this year, since he is indoor. But next year the dr recommended getting his teeth cleaned. $600.
We'll see.

start feeding him the dental diet Hills t/d. Can only buy at the vet but it works. No other dental diet is as effective, imo. I am a big Purina fan but even their prescription dental diet doesn't work as well as t/d. And don't even bother with otc dental diets...wasting your money.

He doesn't have a regular vet for the cat.
I'll tell him. See how far that gets him.

WE LURV YOU TOO! Dork!!!

Regarding coyotes...They've been hunted, baited, and trapped for so long that human has force-evolved them into a much smarter animal than they were 150 years ago. In Wyoming and Colorado, I knew they were around, but very seldom saw one. In California, they were protected on base (top predator to control the pest animals) and they were brazen. They'd trot down the roads, right through housing. Big, too, at least 60+ pounds.

My last dog most likely had a coyote for a daddy. He was very smart, but also the one of the sweetest dogs I've ever met.

There is an old guy at the dog park that had a wolf hybrid. He wants another one.
I bet he would like a coyote mix.

There is a raggedy, hungry looking coyote living across the street in a wooded area. Walks out every once in awhile - jut to let us all know he is there I think. Never seens to bother with the dogs or dog walkers.

AZ, you're incorrect with that assumption. The last two threads that closed prior to PWA were both closed during the day. Two Words at 10AM and Last Post at 4:51PM. Time to turn that frown upside-down.

Congrats Pooflady!

Turken, have you tried one of these for your phone? Our dollar stores have them.

Good morning everyone!

I've been wrong in the past and will likely be wrong in the future. But PWA is the only thread to which I pay attention.
